Fascination with Celebrity

Celebrities live fascinating lives when seen from the eyes of an everyday individual who works a 9-5 somewhere in middle America. People try to keep up to date on all the happenings of their favorite actor, musician, reality star, etc. through tons of different social media websites that give these people fantasy lives. If you look at someone like Kim Kardashian, one of the biggest social media celebrities of our time, you see her showing the world the life she wants them to see. Besides the mishaps with different leaked stories, all over Ms. Kardashians social media outlets are controlled and filtered by herself and her team. Everyday individuals think that this is the socialites true colors, but what some don't realize is that there is more to Kim than meets the eye. As with everyone else dealing with social media, it is all about creating your own image. You wouldn't put a picture of you stealing on your facebook would you? Well that is essentially what everyone else is doing with these websites. Including celebrities, they are creating this fake life that looks magnificent, but when you look deep down into their real lives they are exactly like everyone else. We cannot be fooled by these facades that are being shown to the world when it comes to people we admire or stalk on the world wide web.
